FROZEN MOCHA MOUSSE
Steps:
- Break 3 ounces of the chocolate into pieces and place the pieces in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk in the coffee liqueur, water and espresso granules and heat the mixture until the chocolate just melts. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Place the egg yolks and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed for 3 minutes, until the mixture is the texture of mayonnaise. Add the cocoa powder and vanilla, and slowly pour in the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Put the egg whites and salt in the clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed until the whites form soft (not dry!) peaks. Fold them carefully into the chocolate mixture. In the same bowl (no need to clean it) beat the heavy cream until it forms soft peaks and fold it carefully into the chocolate mixture. Grate the remaining 4 ounces of chocolate and fold it into the mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a 10-cup souffle dish, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for several hours or overnight.
- For the whipped cream, place the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and whip on medium and then high speed until it reach stiff peaks. Spoon the whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the edge of the mousse with the whipped cream, and sprinkle extra chocolate shavings over the center of the mousse for decoration. Serve frozen.
EASY FROZEN MARGARITAS
Authentic margaritas call for lots of fresh lime juice - both expensive and time-consuming. I've found I can shortcut the process by using frozen limeade. And for a festive non-alcoholic drink, combine a 12-ounce can of limeade (thawed) with a 48-ounce bottle of sparkling water.

Steps:
- Working in 2 batches, place 1 quart ice cubes in a blender. Add 1/2 can limeade, 6 ounces tequila and 2 tablespoons Cointreau. Blend at highest speed until drink is almost smooth. Pour into a pitcher and repeat with remaining ingredients. Store in the freezer.
- To salt the margarita glasses, pour a single layer of salt on a salad plate. Moisten each glass rim with lime; dip each rim in the salt. Pour margaritas into each glass; garnish with lime. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Use fresh lime juice. Fresh lime juice will give your margarita mousse a brighter, more citrusy flavor than bottled lime juice. If you don't have fresh limes on hand, you can use bottled lime juice, but be sure to use 100% lime juice, not a lime-flavored drink.
- Use a good quality tequila. The tequila you use will also make a big difference in the flavor of your margarita mousse. Look for a tequila that is 100% agave and has a smooth, clean flavor.
- Don't overbeat the mousse. Overbeating the mousse will make it tough and grainy. Beat it just until it is smooth and creamy.
- Chill the mousse before serving. Chilling the mousse will help it to set and firm up. You can chill it for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
Conclusion:
Frozen margarita mousse is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time. With its tangy, citrusy flavor, this mousse is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give frozen margarita mousse a try. You won't be disappointed!
